Paracyclops<p>I've had Lord Dunsany on my TBR for a long time. I found 'Time and The Gods' a very enjoyable read, and I was amazed at how much of Dunsany's influence I could detect in many of my favourite writers.</p><p><a href="https://app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/0e38524f-f13b-4950-8173-dc96000f2639" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/</span><span class="invisible">0e38524f-f13b-4950-8173-dc96000f2639</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fiction</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fantasy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fantasyfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fantasyfiction</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/lorddunsany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lorddunsany</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/timeandthegods" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>timeandthegods</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/thegodsofpegana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thegodsofpegana</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span></p>
Laura Blackwell (she/her)<p>This Story Hour brought us two beautifully written stories, one fantasy and one science fiction. Madeleine E. Robins read a clear-eyed tale of parenting an unusual child—and we don't want to spoil Kemi Ashing-Giwa's heartbreaking story for you, but it also addresses personhood and family (and more).
